Leadership Coaching
Developing personal, relational, and strategic leadership skills for enhanced impact
Leadership coaching is dedicated to helping people obtain and strengthen the skills, knowledge, and behaviours required to effectively lead themselves, their teams, departments or the organization. As a set of nested systems, skills gain complexity as leadership scope increases. The goals and priorities for coaching depend on a leader's experience, organizational priorities, motivations and interests.
“Any skill can be strengthened, honed, and enhanced if we have the motivation and desire, the practice and feedback, the role models and coaching, and the support and recognition.”
– Kouzes & Posner

What do you need for yourself?
What do others need from you?
Leading Self
Personal
For individual contributors and early career leaders
Great leadership begins within. Through one-to-one coaching, you’ll draft and pursue a plan for deepening your self-awareness by clarifying your personal values, identifying your strengths, and putting structures in place for ongoing career, education, and life planning decision-making. Taken together, you will set a path toward more meaningful, values-aligned, self- expression.
Leading Others
Relational
For managers and team leaders
Credibility in leading others is all about your ability to build connections, inspire and support people, and confront challenging behaviours with compassion. Through one-to-one coaching, you’ll enhance your relational skills to foster trust, strengthen communication, and navigate team dynamics with confidence. Together, we’ll create a tailored plan to strengthen your people management confidence, skills, and knowledge.
Leading the Organization
Strategic
For stewards of vision, culture and change
Through one-to-one coaching, we’ll focus on strengthening the skills that allow you to set and steward a compelling vision; you may decide to strengthen your strategic and systems thinking skills, enhance your capacity to lead change or take a coach-approach when facilitating planning and decision making.
Assessments for Learning and Development
Cutting-edge learning tools are available as part of the leadership development and coaching process. I use tools that have been tested in clinical, corporate, and educational environments. Whether you are looking for a comprehensive 360-degree feedback assessment, or wishing to better understand your leadership strengths, personal values, or emotional intelligence, I will work alongside you to determine what it is you want and need to know and coach you toward integration and verifiable improvements.
